For artists who brave the hop across the Pentland Firth, notoriously one of the roughest stretches of sea in the world, they join the ranks of some of the UK and World top blues artists in creating a unique weekend of blues in the cobbled streets and pubs of the Orkney Islands.

Let us look after you with food, drink and accommodation, an appreciative audience, and you can experience a truly warm Orcadian welcome to the islands.
